Are you good at eyeballing?

[Ghoulish Delight]

The Eyeballing Game (http://woodgears.ca/eyeball/)

First time through I got a so-so score of 9.33. 2nd time through I dropped it down to 4.05.

[Alex]

4.97 on first try.

[Alex]

And doing it as fast as I can I get a 4.71.

[Betty]

5.44!

[Capt Jack]

3.75


3.21 the 2nd try.

[Ghoulish Delight]

My first score was hurt by my continued failure to be good at geometric construction. For the "equidistant to all the sides of the triangle" one, I was eyeballing the wrong thing, which really threw my # off. The second time through I got a clue.

Meanwhile, I apparently suck at eyeballing right angles.

[Betty]

4.32

[innerSpaceman]

6.27. i'm a failure!

[Betty]

6.27. i'm a failure!

So - you're good at ballin' just not eyeballin'? :evil: :p

[Alex]

Now to figure out the neurological defect that apparently mandates I peg the center of a circle slightly SE of where it really is.

The others I miss to either side but that one is always just a bit off to the right and down. The parallelogram is consistently the worst for me and I have nailed midpoint and bisect several times each.

[Gemini Cricket]

4.10

[innerSpaceman]

And snowballin', just not eyeballin'. ;)

[scaeagles]

I like this, but I don't seem to get better at it. I've played 5 times and got between 2.87 and 3.12 each time. Not much variance.

[Moonliner]

12.5

However that was primarily due to just the first one where I did not get quite get the concept and was way, way, way, way off.

[mousepod]

quick - sloppy and 8.16. I'm OK with that.

[lashbear]

5.59 first go. I'm best at finding converging angles & Parallelograms.

[ToriBear]

I got 11.79 on the fifth try.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

3.22 first try. I didn't read your responses first so I thought I was doing poorly :)

[Drince88]

4.4 and 4.7 if I discard one point on each test - the first one because I moved the stupid midpoint of hte line so far off of a straightline, it was over 100 off - the second time because I my finger slipped off the mouse thing (I'm on a laptop using the 'pencil' mouse) Not discarding those two points, 9.34 and 5.71.

I usually don't like these sorts of things, but that was a fun one!

[lashbear]

4.82 second time around.

[Stan4dSteph]

3.51

[Betty]

And snowballin', just not eyeballin'. ;)

Had to go look that one up. Silly me! :eek: I think I'm going to pass on that myself thanks. I won't say it's bad enough the first time around but combined with my spit phobia? Ultra-yikes. (but whatever rings your bell.)

[alphabassettgrrl]

7.5 first time and 5.4 second time, when I understood the rules. It should probably be a bit better, but the laptop mouse thingie behaved oddly and it went where it shouldn't have and I scored badly on that one bit.

[€uroMeinke]

I got bored and didn't complete the test

[BDBopper]

I got a 38.56 I guess that isn't too bad for a legally blind guy. Actually it is pretty terrible. :(

[LSPoorEeyorick]

Meanwhile, I apparently suck at eyeballing right angles.

Funny, those are my best. The bisecting is my weakness.

6.04 initially, then 4.0

[Prudence]

Not sharing the rest of my scores, but I ROCK at convergence.

[bewitched]

4.86 I'm best at bisecting angles (.4 on average) and making right angles (1.7 average)

[Alex]

After several roudns of trying the biggest miss I was able to get was 1615.9.

[scaeagles]

I seem to be best at finding the center of a circle - I've hit it exactly more often than any other catgory. The one that seems like it should be easiest - the parallelogram - is what I seem to do worst at.

[Moonliner]

After several roudns of trying the biggest miss I was able to get was 1615.9.

Is that a one item score, average score, or total score (not reported by the program)?

[Alex]

Yeah, that was highest on a single miss. You can't really get off by more than a couple hundred on the angle ones.

[Moonliner]

The parallelogram lets you draw off the end of the screen so it's easy to score over 2,000 on that one.

[Ghoulish Delight]

The parallelogram lets you draw off the end of the screen so it's easy to score over 2,000 on that one.I bet if you have dual monitors you can increase that.

[Alex]

The parallelogram lets you draw off the end of the screen so it's easy to score over 2,000 on that one.

At least on my monitor that still never got up over 1615 but yeah.

[Moonliner]

I bet if you have dual monitors you can increase that.

At least on my monitor that still never got up over 1615 but yeah.

Did I mention I use dual monitors?

[scaeagles]

With dual monitors I was able to be 2415 off on a circle center, but that was about as far off as I could get.

[blueerica]

4.03 first try. I should try this again at home, where I will be much less distracted.

It also helps that I have my aspect ratio spot-on.

[frodo potter]

I got 5.01 first time around.
